Re-Digitizing an Existing
Sequence
Sequence
Media Station|PT can open sequences created
on other Avid editing systems (such as Media
Composer Adrenaline). However, you may want
to re-digitize some or all of the media files be-
cause they were the wrong resolution, missing,
or corrupted.

audio to Pro Tools.

Digitizing from an EDL
Media Station|PT includes Avid EDL Manager
software, which lets you open an EDL from an-
other editing application, create a Media Sta-
tion|PT sequence from that EDL, then re-digitize
the sequence.

While Pro Tools video output is intended for
monitoring purposes only and is not suitable for
professional layback or broadcast, video output
from Media Station|PT is full broadcast quality.
You can use Media Station|PT linked to
Pro Tools when you need to output both audio
and video to tape.

To minimize the chance of dropped frames,
it is recommended that all effects be ren-

When laying back to an SDI VTR or 1394
device that requires audio and video to be
combined in a single stream, you must ex-
port the audio to Media Station|PT from
Pro Tools or combine audio and video sig-
nals using a third-party summing device,
and then lay back the final sequence to tape.
